    Does anyone throw a lot of these? I absolutely love this punch recently, i've gotten to where I can really dig with it. How would you counter someone who throws lead hand uppercuts?

    Block front upper cut, counter front hook to the body, front hook to the head, finally half way through, right hook to the body, right right uppercut to the head and front hook to the head. Move

    Try throwing it like a counter hook or like PBF's "Check Hook".
    It should land right under the chin.

    If you keep throwing it, you're gonna get knocked out. It's the easiest **** to counter.

    Half step back... shoot straight right.

    Or, if it's to the body, dip and catch it, then counter with uppercut with same hand.

    If you rotate off your lead foot clockwise, it sounds complicated here now that im trying to type in but it is like said above with Mayweather KO'n Hatton. Just rotatre out of the way. it sets you up in a beautiful position. You can throw your own uppercut with your right hand if your righty, or a right hook. Just keep the left foot planted and swing your back foot around so your on the side of your opponent.
